Question

I started working on same project recently and I have noticed some strange problem I can’t resolve.
After running Django developement server, and typing address into the browset I get following output in terminal:

[02/Oct/2012 00:38:08] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 482
[02/Oct/2012 00:38:09] "GET /static/style.css HTTP/1.1" 200 349
[02/Oct/2012 00:38:09] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 482

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc5 in position 52: ordinal not in range(128)

Page is displayed properly and server is still working, but I think this is annoying. And I’m also curious what is this about.
So, after a while I figured out, that if I comment out second pattern in my urls.py the error message is no longer displayed. My urls.py:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url

from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^$', 'apps.articles.views.index', name='homepage'),
    url(r'', include('articles.urls', namespace='articles')),
    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)

and apps/users/urls.py:

# -*- encoding: utf-8 -*-

from django.conf.urls import patterns, url

urlpatterns = patterns('articles.views',
    url(r'^articles/$', 'article_list', {'all': True}, name='article_list'),
)

I’ve also noticed, that my style.css file isd/*position: absolute;
not working properly. I’ve set border aroun

Does your application name have non-ascii characters?
